Accurate colors

Hi,
This question probably has come up before. When I print through Photoshop
6. My photo prints don't have the same colors or richness as the images
either in the camera or on the monitor. If I print directly from Windows,
the image is great but I don't get the advantages of Photoshop editing and
setup. What should I be doing differently?

What exactly do you mean by "If I print directly from Windows..."?

Other than that question, be aware that color management on a computer
is very complex and you'd do well to read the PS manual (in version 6,
its chapter 4 "Producing Consistent Color").
